Definitions
- Typical preferred compounds include m-fluorophenyl diphenyl phosphate and m-fluorophenyl p-fluorophenyl phenyl phosphate.
- This invention relates to certain fluoroaryl phosphate esters and is particularly concerned with the provision of novel fluorinated triaryl phosphates.
- Another object of the invention is the provision of fluorinated triaryl phosphate esters having the above-noted properties and other advantages, and having particular ,I
- R is a member selected from the group consisting of monofluorophenyl, monofluorocresyl and monofluoroxylyl
- R and R" are each a member selected from the group consisting of phenyl, cresyl, xylyl, monofluorophenyl, monofluorocresyl and monofluoroxylyl.
- R and R can be the same or different.
- the fluorine substituent can be carried in ortho, meta or para position on the phenyl, cresyl or xylyl nucleus, with respect to the attachment of such nucleus to the oxygen atom of the phosphate ester.
- the meta fluoro derivatives generally are preferred because such meta fluoroaryl phosphate esters according to the invention have a wider liquid range and a lower melting point as compared to the corresponding para and ortho derivatives.
- the fluorinated triaryl phosphate esters of the invention can include esters having only one fluoroaryl, e.g., fluorophenyl, group, two fluoroaryl groups or three fluoroaryl groups. Compounds which contain fluorophenyl groups are preferred over those containing fluorocresyl or fluoroxylyl groups. Where the phosphate esters of the invention contain cresyl or xylyl groups, it is preferred that the ester also contain at least one phenyl group. The preferred esters further are those which contain fluorophenyl groups as compared to those containing fluorocresyl or fluoroxylyl groups. Thus, where the ester contains phenyl, and also cresyl and/or xylyl groups, it is preferred that at least the phenyl group be monofluorinated.
- the preferred triaryl phosphate esters of the invention are the monofluorophenyl diphenyl phosphates, the his- (monofluorophenyDphenyl phosphates, and the tris- (monofluoro-phenyl)phosphates.
- Such compounds have the general formula where X is a member selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and fluorine, there being at least one fluorine atom in the molecule and said fluorine atom or atoms preferably being in meta position in the phenyl nuclei.
- fluoroaryl phosphates are particularly valuable as functional fluids, e.g., as base stocks for hydraulic fluids, and are also useful as heat transfer media and as lubricants due to the advantageous physical properties of such compounds. These properties include high fire resistance, increased temperature stability, and liquidity over a relatively wide temperature range.
- these fluorinated phosphate esters have a thermal stability in the range of about 600- to about 800 F., autoignition temperatures of the order of about 900 to about 1,000 F. and remain liquid down to a temperature of the order of about 60 F. Further, the viscosity of such fluoroaryl phosphate esters at low temperatures of the order of -25 to 40 F.
- the phosphate esters of the invention permit the operative use of such liquids as hydraulic fluids, cooling media and lubricants in these low temperature ranges. These compounds are also relatively nonvolatile at elevated temperatures due to the high boiling point of these materials.
- certain of the phosphate esters of the invention particularly the metafluorophenyl phosphate derivatives, have relatively low pour points, e.g., of the order of F. to F. or lower, which together with the relatively low viscosity of these materials at low temperatures, permit the liquid compounds to be pumped without high expenditure of energy at low temperatures.
- the phosphate esters of the invention have good hydrolytic stability, and do not adversely affect materials, such as metals, e.g., steel, aluminum, and the like, with which they may be in contact.
- fiuoroaryl phosphate esters of the invention having pour points and melting points above 0 F. for example those containing ortho fluoro and/ or para fluoro substituents, can be employed as general industrial hydraulic fluids and lubricants particularly where high fire resistance and high thermal stability are important characteristics, e.g., in high pressure systems, such as hydro electric turbines, air compressors and hydraulic presses having various sources of ignition which would result in fire and explosion from leaking hydraulic fluids in the event such fluids are not adequately fire resistant.
- the above-noted relatively higher melting derivatives and including, for example, the o-cresyl substituted phosphate esters according to the invention, can
- phosphate esters such as the m-fluorophenyl phosphate esters hereof, or other phosphate esters such as the fluorinated diaryl phosphate esters of the copending application Ser. No. 364,763 filed May 4, 1964, of Seil et al. now Patent No. 3,308,207, to function as thickeners, lubricity improvers or pour point depressants for such esters, e.g., when the latter are employed as hydraulic fluid base stocks.
- the compounds of the invention are used generally in a proportion of about 1 to about 10% by weight of the total composition.
- the fluoroaryl phosphate esters of the invention can be produced by reacting a suitable phenol or monofluorophenol compound, or mixtures thereof, with a suitable aryl, e.-g., phenyl or monofluorophenyl, phosphoryl dichloride, or with a suitable diaryl, e.g., diphenyl or bis (fluorophenyl) phosphoryl chloride, preferably in the presence of pyridine or any other suitable HCl acceptor.
- a suitable aryl e.-g., phenyl or monofluorophenyl, phosphoryl dichloride
- a suitable diaryl e.g., diphenyl or bis (fluorophenyl) phosphoryl chloride
- a phenyl or fluorophenyl phosphoryl dichloride a proportion of about 2 moles of the phenol compound to one mole of the phosphoryl dichloride is employed.
- a diphenyl or bis (fluorophenyl) phosphoryl chloride a proportion of about one mole of the phenol compound to one mole of the phosphoryl chloride is utilized.
- Monofiuorophenyl phosphoryl dichloride and bis(monofiuorophenyl) phosphoryl chloride are the subject of the invention of the copending application Ser. No. 421,641. filed of even date herewith, of Robert H. Boscnan and James P. Holder, and the method of preparation of these compounds is described in said application.
- the tris(monofiuoroaryl), e.g., tris(monofiuorophenyi), phosphate esters of the invention are prepared by reacting a suitable monofluorophenol compound with phosphorus oxychloride in a proportion of about 3 moles of the fluorophenol to one mole of POCl
- the reaction is carried out generally by heating the reaction mixture, which may also include an organic solvent, e.g., benzene, for a period of time, e.g., several hours, removing the organic phase containing the phosphate ester reaction product, preferably washing, and then drying such organic material, and distilling this material, usually at low pressure, to separate the phosphate ester present from excess phenol compound, and to remove water and any organic solvent present.
- an organic solvent e.g., benzene
- fiuoroaryl phosphates of the invention are as follows:
- Compound (1) especially possesses a combination of viscosity characteristics, pour point, liquid range, thermal stability, and lubricity, rendering such compound particularly valuable as a hydraulic fluid, lubricant and cooling medium, and as especially suitable for use in hydraulic systems of aircraft.
- Example 1 is(m-fluorophenyl) phenyl phosphate To a mixture of 117.7 g. (1.05 moles) of m-fiuorophenol, 87.0 g. (1.10 moles) of pyridine and 400 ml. of benzene was added dropwise with stirring 105.5 g. (0.500 mole) of re-distilled phenylphosphoryl dichloride. The temperature was maintained at 15-20 C. during the addition, which was complete in 2 hours. The mixture was heated to reflux temperature and refluxed overnight. The mixture was then cooled and poured into 700 ml. of
- the resulting phosphate ester product, compound (1) above has a density of 1.325 g./ml. at 77 F., a kinematic viscosity at F. of 416 centistokes, and a pour point of -60 F.
- the compound remains liquid over a broad temperature range.
- such phosphate has a thermal stability up to 753 F., high autoignition temperature, good hydrolytic stability, and high fire resistance.
- a Shell 4-ball wear test on the phosphate ester of this example carried out at 1,200 r.p.m. for 1 hour at 400 F. using a 40 kgm. load for steel on steel, gave a scar diameter of 0.70 mm., indicating that such phosphate ester has excellent wear properties and excellent lubricity.
- Example 2 Tris (m-fluorophenyl) phosphate To a mixture of 24.7 g. (0.221 mole) of m-fluorophenol, 18.3 g. (0.231 mole) of pyridine and 35 ml. of benzene was added dropwise with stirring 10.7 g. (0.070 mols) of redistilled phosphorus oxychloride. The temperature was maintained at 15 -25 C. during the addition, which was complete in 45 minutes. The mixture was heated to reflux temperature and refluxed for 22 hours.
- the mixture was then cooled and poured into 250 ml. of water.
- the lower organic layer was withdrawn and the aqueous layer was extracted with three 50 ml. portions of ether.
- the ether extracts were added to the organic layer, which was then washed with successive 25 ml. portions of 5% hydrochloric acid, 5% sodium bicarbonate, and water.

Description
United States Patent Oflice Patented May 21, 1968 ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Triaryl phosphates of which the aryl groups include at least one monofluorinated aryl group, useful particularly at elevated temperatures as hydraulic. fluids, lubricants and heat transfer or cooling media, for aircraft systems and for industrial use. Typical preferred compounds include m-fluorophenyl diphenyl phosphate and m-fluorophenyl p-fluorophenyl phenyl phosphate.
This invention relates to certain fluoroaryl phosphate esters and is particularly concerned with the provision of novel fluorinated triaryl phosphates.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a series of compounds having high fire resistance, high temperature stability, and which remain in liquid form over a wide temperature range and are relatively nonvolatile at elevated temperatures.
Another object of the invention is the provision of fluorinated triaryl phosphate esters having the above-noted properties and other advantages, and having particular ,I
utility as hydraulic fluids or components thereof, heat transfer fluids, and as lubricants.
Other objects and advantages will appear hereinafter. We have discovered that the above-noted objects are achieved according to the invention by the provision of a class of fluoroaryl phosphates having the formula where R is a member selected from the group consisting of monofluorophenyl, monofluorocresyl and monofluoroxylyl, and R and R" are each a member selected from the group consisting of phenyl, cresyl, xylyl, monofluorophenyl, monofluorocresyl and monofluoroxylyl. R and R can be the same or different.
The fluorine substituent can be carried in ortho, meta or para position on the phenyl, cresyl or xylyl nucleus, with respect to the attachment of such nucleus to the oxygen atom of the phosphate ester. However, the meta fluoro derivatives generally are preferred because such meta fluoroaryl phosphate esters according to the invention have a wider liquid range and a lower melting point as compared to the corresponding para and ortho derivatives.
According to the above general formula and as will be apparent further hereinafter, the fluorinated triaryl phosphate esters of the invention can include esters having only one fluoroaryl, e.g., fluorophenyl, group, two fluoroaryl groups or three fluoroaryl groups. Compounds which contain fluorophenyl groups are preferred over those containing fluorocresyl or fluoroxylyl groups. Where the phosphate esters of the invention contain cresyl or xylyl groups, it is preferred that the ester also contain at least one phenyl group. The preferred esters further are those which contain fluorophenyl groups as compared to those containing fluorocresyl or fluoroxylyl groups. Thus, where the ester contains phenyl, and also cresyl and/or xylyl groups, it is preferred that at least the phenyl group be monofluorinated.
The preferred triaryl phosphate esters of the invention are the monofluorophenyl diphenyl phosphates, the his- (monofluorophenyDphenyl phosphates, and the tris- (monofluoro-phenyl)phosphates. Such compounds have the general formula where X is a member selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and fluorine, there being at least one fluorine atom in the molecule and said fluorine atom or atoms preferably being in meta position in the phenyl nuclei.
It has been found that the above-defined fluoroaryl phosphates are particularly valuable as functional fluids, e.g., as base stocks for hydraulic fluids, and are also useful as heat transfer media and as lubricants due to the advantageous physical properties of such compounds. These properties include high fire resistance, increased temperature stability, and liquidity over a relatively wide temperature range. Thus, for example, generally these fluorinated phosphate esters have a thermal stability in the range of about 600- to about 800 F., autoignition temperatures of the order of about 900 to about 1,000 F. and remain liquid down to a temperature of the order of about 60 F. Further, the viscosity of such fluoroaryl phosphate esters at low temperatures of the order of -25 to 40 F. permits the operative use of such liquids as hydraulic fluids, cooling media and lubricants in these low temperature ranges. These compounds are also relatively nonvolatile at elevated temperatures due to the high boiling point of these materials. Also, certain of the phosphate esters of the invention, particularly the metafluorophenyl phosphate derivatives, have relatively low pour points, e.g., of the order of F. to F. or lower, which together with the relatively low viscosity of these materials at low temperatures, permit the liquid compounds to be pumped without high expenditure of energy at low temperatures. Moreover, the phosphate esters of the invention have good hydrolytic stability, and do not adversely affect materials, such as metals, e.g., steel, aluminum, and the like, with which they may be in contact.
The above-noted properties render many of the fluoroaryl phosphate esters hereof, and especially the metafluorophenyl derivatives, particularly useful as hydraulic fluids, lubricants and heat transfer media, e.g., cooling fluids, in aircraft systems, especially modern high-speed aircraft systems.
Those fiuoroaryl phosphate esters of the invention having pour points and melting points above 0 F., for example those containing ortho fluoro and/ or para fluoro substituents, can be employed as general industrial hydraulic fluids and lubricants particularly where high fire resistance and high thermal stability are important characteristics, e.g., in high pressure systems, such as hydro electric turbines, air compressors and hydraulic presses having various sources of ignition which would result in fire and explosion from leaking hydraulic fluids in the event such fluids are not adequately fire resistant.
Also, the above-noted relatively higher melting derivatives, and including, for example, the o-cresyl substituted phosphate esters according to the invention, can
3 be employed as additives in combination with compatible phosphate esters such as the m-fluorophenyl phosphate esters hereof, or other phosphate esters such as the fluorinated diaryl phosphate esters of the copending application Ser. No. 364,763 filed May 4, 1964, of Seil et al. now Patent No. 3,308,207, to function as thickeners, lubricity improvers or pour point depressants for such esters, e.g., when the latter are employed as hydraulic fluid base stocks. When so employed as additives, the compounds of the invention are used generally in a proportion of about 1 to about 10% by weight of the total composition.
The fluoroaryl phosphate esters of the invention can be produced by reacting a suitable phenol or monofluorophenol compound, or mixtures thereof, with a suitable aryl, e.-g., phenyl or monofluorophenyl, phosphoryl dichloride, or with a suitable diaryl, e.g., diphenyl or bis (fluorophenyl) phosphoryl chloride, preferably in the presence of pyridine or any other suitable HCl acceptor. The proportion of HCl acceptor or pyridine generally employed is usually about equimolar with respect to the phenol compound employed. Where, for example, a phenyl or fluorophenyl phosphoryl dichloride is used, a proportion of about 2 moles of the phenol compound to one mole of the phosphoryl dichloride is employed. Where, for example, a diphenyl or bis (fluorophenyl) phosphoryl chloride is used, a proportion of about one mole of the phenol compound to one mole of the phosphoryl chloride is utilized. Monofiuorophenyl phosphoryl dichloride and bis(monofiuorophenyl) phosphoryl chloride are the subject of the invention of the copending application Ser. No. 421,641. filed of even date herewith, of Robert H. Boscnan and James P. Holder, and the method of preparation of these compounds is described in said application.
The tris(monofiuoroaryl), e.g., tris(monofiuorophenyi), phosphate esters of the invention are prepared by reacting a suitable monofluorophenol compound with phosphorus oxychloride in a proportion of about 3 moles of the fluorophenol to one mole of POCl The reaction is carried out generally by heating the reaction mixture, which may also include an organic solvent, e.g., benzene, for a period of time, e.g., several hours, removing the organic phase containing the phosphate ester reaction product, preferably washing, and then drying such organic material, and distilling this material, usually at low pressure, to separate the phosphate ester present from excess phenol compound, and to remove water and any organic solvent present.
